One of Four Remaining Yangtze Turtles Dies in China
One of the world’s rarest turtles, a Yangtze giant softshell, has died in China,
leaving just three remaining.
Also known as Rafetus Swinhoei, the female turtle died in the Suzhou zoo in
southern China.
Experts had tried to artificially inseminate the creature, which was over 90 years
old, for a fifth time shortly before she died.
The species is critically endangered due to hunting, overfishing, and the
destruction of its habitat.
One male is left in the Chinese zoo while two other turtles live in the wild in
Vietnam. The elusive nature of the turtle means it has been difficult to identify the
latter’s gender.
Local staff and international experts had attempted to artificially inseminate the
female 24 hours before she died.
They said, “There were no complications from the operation and she had been in
fine health after the procedure, but deteriorated the next day.”
The cause of her death is being investigated and the turtle’s ovarian tissue was
collected for future research.

Biodiesel Fuel: Alternative for a Green Tomorrow
Biodiesel in simple words is an advanced form of Biofuel. It refers to an
animal or vegetable fat based renewable fuel, made up of a long chain of
chemical compounds like propyl, ethyl, methyl, etc. Created by chemically
treating vegetable oil or animal fat with alcohol generating compounds,
biodiesel is believed to be the revolution that is helping several countries
overcome their dependency on diesel. It can be operated in any diesel engine
with little or no modification to the engine or the fuel system.
Biodiesel is a solution for our green concerns. The emissions are lower as
compared to those from diesel (petroleum). A detailed explanation would state
that biodiesel, reduces unburned hydrocarbons, particulate matter, and other
gases as compared to petroleum diesel. In the United States of America, it is
produced on a large scale in a bid to reduce dependency on other countries
for oil needs. This had led to several green jobs being created and has also
contributed to the economy.
It produces less carbon output and few pollutants than traditional petroleum
products. When compared to petroleum diesel, biodiesel produces less soot
(particulate matter), carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons, and sulfur
dioxide. Pollution from oil causes more air pollution and many people fall sick
every day. With the use of biodiesel, people have got huge health benefits as
they need to spend less money on healthcare products.
So, what can you conclude about biodiesel? I think it is really alternative fuel
for our green concerns in the future.

Agriculture Ministry Launches Trial for B100 Biodiesel Fuel
The Agriculture Ministry started on Monday the trial period for the use of 100-
percent biodiesel (B100) of fuel that uses fatty acid methyl ester from crude
palm oil (CPO) in a move that expands its reach within the domestic palm oil
market and reduces the dependency on imported fossil fuels.
Agriculture Minister Amran Sulaiman said during the event that the trial
would involve 50 of the ministry’s official cars and tractors.
He said B100 fuel allowed vehicles to travel 13.1 kilometers per liter, which
was more efficient than using Solar-branded fossil fuels that limited travel to 9.6
kilometers per liter.
In early testing, cars that used B100 fuel could travel 6,000 kilometers in total,
he added.
The ministry also began discussing the possible mass production of B100 fuel
with state-owned enterprises and private companies. Amran estimated the
commercial price of B100 to be around Rp 8,000 (57 US cents) per liter.
“Users should not only think about cutting costs, but they have also to think
about protecting the environment. B100 produces less pollution than diesel
[fossil] fuels,” he said on the sidelines of the launch.
Amran expressed hope that the widespread use of B100 could be
implemented to cut imports of fossil fuels and boost the domestic use of CPO
amid the European Union’s campaign against the commodity.

Indonesia Floods: Dozens Dead in Papua Province

At least 73 people have been dead and more than 60 are missing in
flash floods in Indonesia’s eastern province of Papua.
Rescue workers are struggling to reach remote parts of the province,
and there are fears the number of dead may rise. Roads have been
blocked by landslides and fallen trees, and floodwaters have damaged two
bridges and more than 100 houses.
More than 4,000 people have been forced from their homes, and some
are sheltering in government offices.
Local residents said torrential rain began on Saturday evening and
continued into the night, triggering mudslides and flash floods.

Continue reading in the next slide.

 “Our house was flooded with thick mud. We immediately grabbed our
valuables and ran to a neighbor’s [two-storey] house to seek refuge,”
mother-of-two Lili Puji Hastuti told AFP news agency. “It’s hard to get out
of the area because many roads are blocked. I’m worried, sad, and scared
all at once.”
The search for victims continues in the town of Sentani, one of the
worst affected areas. At least 51 people were killed in the town, national
disaster agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho told Reuters news
agency.
Another seven confirmed deaths were in the nearby provincial capital
Jayapura, Mr. Nugroho added.
However, a five-month-old baby was rescued in the city after being
trapped under the rubble for hours, according to the military. The baby
was later reunited with his family. His father survived but his mother’s
whereabouts is unknown.

New Species of Ancient Human Discovered in Philippines Cave
A new species of ancient human, thought to have been under 4ft tall and adapted
to climbing trees, has been discovered in the Philippines, providing a twist in the story
of human evolution.
The specimen, named Homo Luzonensis, was excavated from Callao cave on Luzon
island in the northern Philippines and has been dated to 50,000-67,000 years ago –
when our own ancestors and the Neanderthals were spreading across Europe and into
Asia.
Florent Détroit, of the Natural History Museum in Paris and the paper’s first author,
said, “The discovery provided the latest challenge to the fairly straightforward
prevalent narrative of human evolution.”
It was once thought that no humans left Africa until about 1.5 million years ago,
when a large-bodied ancient human called Homo erectus set off on a dispersal that
ultimately allowed it to occupy territory spanning Africa and Spain, China and
Indonesia.
“We now know that it was a much more complex evolutionary history, with several
distinct species contemporaneous with Homo sapiens, interbreeding events,
extinctions,” said Détroit. “Homo Luzonensis is one of those species and we will
[increasingly see] that a few thousand years back in time, Homo sapiens was definitely
not alone on Earth.”
Continue reading in the next slide.
 The excavation did not yield a complete skeleton: seven teeth, two hand bones,
three foot bones, and one thigh bone were found, thought to belong to two adults
and one child. Nevertheless, the fossils provide intriguing clues to the appearance
and lifestyle of Homo Luzonensis.
The tiny teeth suggest the human would have been shorter than 4ft tall – possibly
even shorter than another ancient species, Homo floresiensis, sometimes called the
“hobbit”, also found in south-east Asia and dating to about the same period. Most
intriguing was the presence of a curved toe bone, which closely resembled the
anatomy of far more ancient species such as Australopithecus, known only in Africa.
Normally this anatomy would indicate a mixed lifestyle with an ability to walk on
two legs and climb trees. One possibility is that this primitive trait reappeared once
the species had become isolated on the island. “Maybe the way they were walking
was distinct,” said Détroit. “This is something we plan to work on in the near future.”
It is not known whether the new species, along with the ‘hobbit’, represents
earlier dispersals from Africa than Homo erectus, or whether they are descendants
who later shrank and evolved new anatomical traits.
Another mystery is how they arrived at Luzon, a large island that has never been
connected to the mainland by a land bridge. One possibility is that the early humans
set out to sea intentionally on some form of raft; another is that they were washed
there in relatively large numbers due to a natural event such as a tsunami.
